"The work of furnishing lumber and shingles to replace, after a sort, the houses and barns destroyed, was entered upon immediately after the fires, but so large were the quantities required beyond the available stocks within reach, that some time was

unavoidably consumed before all the sufferers could be furnished with sufficient shelter. In order to hasten and increase the supply, advances and dona- tions were made to owners of saw-mills destroyed in the district, to be repaid in lumber or sawing for the benefit of the sufferers. The Detroit Relief Com- mittee, by whom such loans and donations were chiefly made, was guided in its action by the recom- mendation of the district agents, that such aid would not only increase the quantity of lumber for the use of the sufferers, but by sawing logs for those who required, be of general benefit to the district. Some of these loans have already been repaid in full or in part in lumber and sawing. The sufferers are now all under shelter, and temporary shelter for the stock is also nearly furnished.
" As fast as places of shelter could be got ready, and doors and windows sent forward to close them in, the Commission, who had meanwhile been forward- ing stoves as fast as they could be furnished by the manufacturers, purchased and sent forward a mod- erate quantity of furniture, consisting of bedsteads, chairs, tables, tin and wooden ware, and crockery, useful and substantial in kind and character; and although the supply to each family was necessarily limited, the requisitions of the district agents having been filled, it is believed that sufficient has been distributed to supply the necessities of the sufferers and enable them to resume housekeeping.
"The abundant rains during October, falling upon the soil burned over and enriched by the fires, pro- duced an abundant crop of grass, which, with the continued mild weather until late in the season, proved of incalculable benefit and saved the lives of a large number of cattle. At the proper time a circular letter was sent by several agents, requesting them to notify the sufferers that hay would be furn- ished to each family so entitled at the rate of one ton for each head of cattle, at the maximum number of one team and one cow, three head in all ; to those who possessed more without having otherwise the means to subsist them, to dispose of the surplus while in a fit condition for sale. The advice was generally followed, and one ton of hay issued. In this connection it should be understood that the amount of hay so furnished by this Commission and other committees was not considered sufficient to winter the cattle so supplied, but rather as the maxi-
mum quantity which the funds on hand would war- rant.
"The remarkably wild winter, however, while it has prevented much valuable out-door work with teams, has at the same time enabled the sufferers to practice the closest economy in feeding, so that the allowance has lasted for a longer time than was an- ticipated.
"The Commission is of the opinion that an addi- tional half ton per head, which it is now engaged in distributing, will, should the spring prove to be fa- vorable in proportion as the winter has hitherto been, not only subsist the cattle until the first of April as contemplated, but, with the aid of some coarse grain to feed the teams during the seeding time, carry them through till grass.
" Upon a careful review of the position of the suf- ferers, and of the reports from the agents in response to a request for information thereon, it was resolved early in November to substitute, instead of supply- ing provisions, payments in money to the sufferers, upon a scale as nearly adequate and proportionate to the size and wants of each family as practicable. The first payment was made by special agents sent for that purpose, in the latter part of November and beginning of December and January. The change from supplies to money payments appeared to give general satisfaction. In January a second payment was made for the month of February and a part of March, 25 per cent being added to the amount al- lowed in the previous payment. It is believed that when hay now being purchased and distributed is paid for, also outstanding contracts for lumber, freights and other expenditures, still a sufficient amount will remain on hand to make one more cash distribution, sufficient at least to subsist the sufferers until April first.
" The following statement of cash receipts and disbursements under the different classifications of aid given, including those of the Detroit Relief Com- mittee, is respectfully submitted. Proper vouchers for all disbursements will be found on file in the office of the Commission. The receipts and dis- bursements, in condensed form, of the East Saginaw and Bay City Relief Committees follow in the order named. A statement of the actual receipts in cash has not yet been received from the Relief Committee of Flint; their total expenditures and balance re- mitted to your Commission is therefore given :

" In the foregoing are presented only the receipts
from contributions in cash and in merchandise sold for cash, which, from its nature and the circumstances of the sufferers, it was deemed more advantageous to sell than to distribute in kind.
" In addition to the above, large quantities of cloth- ing, bedding, articles for domestic use, and other supplies, have been received from all parts of the United States and Canada, which were forwarded to the agents as rapidly as practicable, to be distributed to the best of their judgment. The widely varied character and quality, and the quantity of these donations, their rapid accumulation, and the neces- sity of sending them forward without delay for the use of the sufferers, precluded the possibility of either the Detroit Relief Committee or this Com- mission appraising them at any satisfactory valuation, and therefore no attempt to value them was made.
" In presenting a statement of the number of pack- ages of all kinds received, we beg to add that prop- erly prepared books were placed in the hands of the agents on which to record the amounts distributed of these, as well as of all other supplies, against the name of each family receiving aid.
" Donations of merchandise received by the De- troit Relief Committee and the Fire Relief Commis- sion, part being sold and credited in cash donations, the remainder distributed or now in store :

"Upon the basis of the relief which has been already afforded by the different committees, it is believed that the funds now on hand will be suffi- cient to subsist the sufferers until April first. It would have been very gratifying to have been able to state that the sufferers would from that date be able to support themselves, or that the funds so generously donated would prove sufficient to accom- plish that end.
"The fact remains, however, that much yet is re- quired to be done for our unfortunate fellow citizens,
496

and the Commission deems it its duty to submit for consideration, without any specific recommendation as to the amount which may be required, a few of the principal wants of the people for which aid is yet necessary, and for which no means are yet provided to supply.
" It will be seen that only such needs are referred to as have already either formed a part of the work of relief or have become connected therewith, as in the case of taxes, for the payment of which money donated for the subsistence of the sufferers has been in many cases used.
" The following comprise the principal heads under which aid will be required after April first, to supply part of which it is essential that operations should be commenced as early as practicable :
I. Provisions for teams during seeding time.
2. Seed for spring sowing.
3. Money to pay taxes.
4. Subsistence for the people until they can real- ize from their lands and labors.
" Other losses occurred to a very considerable amount, in school-houses, fences, bridges, culverts and public edifices." For these the Commission did not feel warranted in making appropriation from the funds at its disposal. It will be obvious from the character of the work itself, and the possibility of contingencies arising in the future, which may to some extent increase or diminish the necessity for aid to the sufferers, that the Commission cannot assume the responsibility of naming a specific sum for that purpose, but instead thereof respectfully submits some statistics in connection therewith, which it trusts may be of service in determining the amount yet necessary, and which will be found attached to this report. In accepting the trust placed in our hands, we have so endeavored to dis- charge the duties incumbent upon us in furnishing aid to our suffering fellow citizens as to enable them to build up their homes again, and to become self- supporting.
'In closing this report we may be permitted to say that we, as a people, are under the deepest obliga- tions to our fellow citizens of other States for so gen- erous a response to the appeal for aid to our suffering people, and that we have endeavored to administer
their bounty for the best interests of those for whose benefit it has been so freely bestowed.
" All of which is respectfully submitted.

"The above report, from individual requests, in- cludes returns and estimates from all the sufferers of every class. Deducting from this quantity the proportion of those whose losses were slight, and who should be able to supply themselves (about one-fourth), and also the quantity believed, on a com- parison of the statistical returns of losses with the amount asked for, to be in excess of the ability to use for seeding purposes, will show that about 60 per cent of the quantity asked for will be sufficient to supply all that can be properly used by those entitled to seed.
